Technical Details & Description:
================================
An insecure file permission access vulnerability has been discovered in the MagicSpam 2.0.13-1 plesk extension.
The vulnerability allows an attacker to access sensitive information like emails without permission or authentication.
Plesk panel features the freemium extension MagicSpam providing industry-leading spam protection technologies.
MagicSpam is keeping a detailed log of all e-mail messages processed under directory /var/log/magicspam/ in
Ubuntu installations. A log file is created with the name mslog, with readable permissions for everyone, and rotated daily.
The file will reveal the full list of mailboxes on the server (provided they received or sent at least one message in the past).
The security risk of the permission vulnerability is estimated as low with a common vulnerability scoring system count of 2.8.
Successful exploitation of the file permission security vulnerability results in information disclosure of emails.
Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The insecure file permission vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without user account or user interaction.
